Tag: The Get Down

Nas kicks raps about the “Angel Dust” epidemic in the 70’s and 80’s on his new track off his executive produced-show, “The Get Down” on Netflix. The single is the intro song to the third episode of season 2 of the show, and samples Gil Scott-Heron and Brian Jackson’s “Angel Dust”.

“The sidewalk was my brother’s office / We cut our losses, I had choices / I took a pen, became a voice for the voiceless / My people walking in a zombie state / Life is short, even mine’s at stake,” raps Nas over the soulful instrumental.

Aside from working on “The Get Down,” Esco is also working on “Street Dreams,” a BET series about his life. He also said his next album was done on last year’s “Nas Album Done” collaboration with Khaled. Khaled has also been teasing Nas’ vocals are in for his next album, meaning more Nas music “soon come.”

In the meantime vibe out with “Angel Dust” below via YouTube.
